Helps us to implement and understand the status of our projects
The initial setup is straightforward. The solution's deployment takes around two months time. We have to set up the solution. We have to put in the data to ensure that the solution is working. We need to fill out our process, our tools, and our data. Two developers were involved in the deployment process. It is a self-maintained solution that requires updates from time to time. I rate the setup an eight out of ten.

Easy to tag people and has a form system to collect information but cannot work in multiple channels simultaneously
There are several areas where Wrike could improve. First, it doesn't allow accessing multiple channels simultaneously, which would be useful. Transferring data from one project to another is also difficult. It would be easier to work on parallel tasks across different projects. I've noticed others facing similar issues when I check the chat on their website. The tool should also improve coordination between external stakeholders and collaborators. It should also integrate financial features.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"ERP approach to IT (edit architecture elements as data using forms, easier for many people compared to drawing / modeling) Hundreds of predefined reports (not only for analysis but also for displaying profiles for single elements like an application including dynamically generated diagrams based on edited data) Very sophisticated meta model (dozens of man years of experience condensed in it) Enterprise collaboration features Web client for the enterprise, either on-site installation or running in a private cloud."
"I would recommend trying planningIT"
"My personal experience with the product was good, primarily because of the support team's responsiveness."
"The dashboard is the most valuable feature."
"Wrike is so easy to get started with and so responsive that it is much easier to get team members to make it part of the workflow."
"Weekly meetings and collaboration between different departments have become much more productive."
"We can easily write down the tasks and reorganize them as well as have a progression index, and Wrike offers several views including a kanban view and Gantt chart view."
"I find Wrike's form system very valuable. I can share forms with my collaborators, and they can fill them out, providing me with the necessary information. Another useful feature is the communication platform, which makes it easy to tag someone and communicate efficiently. Additionally, the integration with Microsoft Office is great. I can create a card on Wrike directly from my MS Teams chat, which is convenient."
"This is a good tool for project progress tracking and sharing tasks with internal and external parties."
"With Wrike we’re able to keep task and projects on track because everything is super visible, updates or questions are able to be handled in real time due to the way Wrike captures update data and when tasks or projects run late everyone involved can see it and adjust accordingly."
"It helped us get things out of emails, IM's, off of notepads and away from verbal fly bys."
"The solution is bug-free and reliable."
 

Cons

"The tool is clearly not very intuitive."
"The user-experience, enhanced performance, and in-hand governance can be improved."
"Only few predefined integrations with other tools exist, most integrations are implemented via an integration module based on XML typically needing vendor expertise."
"The main concern was about the management of task and how easy it is to use the tool."
"The pay model is in blocks of users - would be nice to add one user at a time"
"The main downfall for us is the lack of ability to apply time (budget) for tasks/projects as well as scheduling to make sure that we aren't overstacking a department with too much work at a quick glance."
"The time entry functionality needs improvement."
"The product needs to send direct emails to customers updating the latest aspects since it is better to hear directly."
"The flexibility, which is a strength, also requires you to think through how to structure Wrike to best serve your needs."
"I would like to see a way of implementing a project scope as currently it is just folders, tags and tasks."
"Unfortunately there are a few dislikes: Various exports like the whole folder structure with the users who are directly shared with or the users/collaborators full list is not working."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive. There is a yearly licensing cost. There are no additional costs, only the standard license, and the cloud license."
"Wrike is expensive."
"Wrike is very expensive, and its price is almost $1,400."
"From a pricing perspective, I would rate Wrike a four out of five."
"Wrike is not so expensive, but I don't know exactly how it compares with other tools. Wrike might not be so cheap when we are using it for a lot of users."
